1 CORVALL1S.. June U (Spe
cial) "The annual product of
the sea could amount to one bil-.
Uon dollars if properly cared for,"
said Dr. Barton Warren Ever
mann, director of the museum at
the .California Academy of Sci
eheo. San Francisco, in his speech
tin "Resources of the Pacific
Ocean", Thursday evening at the
!Y" hut before the first assembly
of the summer session of students
of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. '--.
i "The expense of the building up
of the sea resources is almost nil
when compared to the irrigation
and commercial fertilizer ' neces
sary to make land productive,"
continued the speaker.
There are 40 different species
of mammals in the Pacific Ocean,
said .Ir, Evermann. s These form
one of the most Important natur
al resources. OM the different
varieties, the Northern sea otter
Is the most valuable fur bearing
animal in the world. v
A two reel motion picture illu
stratlng the habits of, the seals
was shown during I the evening.
Little incidents in the life of the
seal was t'jld at this time. Chief
among these was S perhaps that
swimming is not a natural instinct
but is learned, when the young are
tnree months old. .Another" thing
in which the audience was inter
ested in was the fact that the male
seals' do not feed between May and
October. i r
